Welcome to the world little one
WHAT IS A FRESH 48 SESSION?This is a special session for all families who want the first few hours of their newborn's life captured without having the entire labor or birth documented. This is held within the first 24 to 48 hours of your baby's life. These lifestyle sessions are perfect for remembering that first day FOREVER! Stunning images of your little one's first yawns, baby feet, toes, fingers and button nose. Detail shots will be documented in an adorable collage.
It's recommended that your immediate family (mom, dad & and siblings). I will capture those quiet moments between you and your new little one! I will come to your preferred location within 48 hours. This is not a traditional newborn session; I will NOT pose the baby or bring props or lights. I will be capturing your baby's sweet new moments in a fresh natural way. |
What is included in a fresh 48 session?
• The Fresh 48 session takes place when you call, during daylight hours, within the first 48 hours of birth. I like to be there as quickly after the birth as possible; the sooner the better!
• It can take place at the hospital, birth center or at home and will last approx and hour or so. • Lifestyle photography – un-posed, natural lighting, and mix of black & white and soft airy colour images. • Includes 15 images with print release up to 8x10. • Includes 1 details collage. • Includes 1 video diary (mini clips along with the 15 images) with soft music. • Includes same-day (or next day if your session is late in the day) Facebook sneak peek for you to share with your family and friends. |

Congrats! Now - take a deep breath and repeat after me - "Everything. Is. Going. To. Be. Okay!"
I have first hand experience with how you are feeling right now...OVERWHELMED, SAD, WORRIED, STRESSED, ANXIOUS...and so much more. You may be back at home now (no baby in your belly, nor in your arms) while your baby is still in the NICU. Coming home and leaving my first baby; Piper was the most difficult moment for me. You are making daily trips to spend time with your little miracle. Life is unfair! Why did this happen to me. What could I have done to prevent this? These are all things that may be running through your mind. At 34 weeks, I gave birth to my daughter Piper weighing only 4lbs. Like most premature babies, she required oxygen assistance and feeding tubes which was heartbreaking and terrifying for me to watch. Her tiny body was covered in wires tracking her every breath. It broke my heart to see my daughter fight for her life. This moment in time felt like FOREVER and I struggled through it with tears. My only consolation was the gorgeous portraits of my daughter hanging on my wall. I want to make this dream come true for you too! You may not have your baby in your arms but you too can have cherished portraits of their features to be with you every step of the way. Have timeless portraits of your little warrior growing and welcome to the family of preemie babies - we are forever connected in our struggle. I specialize in preemie photography and am knowledgeable of the rules surrounding many NICUs we have here in Ottawa. ! What does that mean? I come to the hospital (when the time is right for you and your miracle), where I capture both images and video clips of you doing skin to skin, feedings, holding and just spending time with your little one. I am so thankful I got this done when Piper was in the NICU - I forever treasure these portraits! |
